Hi everyone,
I'm excited to dive into the world of gravel biking and am currently choosing my first gravel bike. Since this is my first one, I’m trying to keep the budget under $1000.
I'm a 5'11" male, and according to Giant's sizing guide, I should be looking at a size ML, which this bike is. I plan to use it for commuting to work (about 20 km each way), some weekend rides, and I’m also considering trying out some bikepacking soon.
The bike seems to be a good match in terms of size, but I’m wondering if it’s a solid choice for a first-time gravel rider. I’m also curious if the price point is reasonable for what I’m getting.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Could possibly be a good bike, but not at that price. I wouldn’t even bother making an offer because what I’d be willing to pay is less than half their asking price, so it would probably be a huge waste of time. Try to find a Giant Revolt or Giant Contend AR, if you can stretch your budget somewhat you should be able to grab one with entry level components brand new.
No offence but this might be the most hideous bike i have ever seen.
I should have mentioned that the currency is Canadian dollarydoos
